Hi,
I'm looking for help in deciding what to do. I did drama for GCSE and unfortunately couldn't take it for A levels as it clashed with something else. I've been lying to myself for quite sometime and to a lot of people around me because I'm afraid of what they'll say. Anytime anyone asks me what I want to be I default to game designer or costume designer, forcing myself to believe it. When in reality all I ever wanted to do was become an actress, even if that means being an extra for the rest of my life. Yet when I tell people that, especially my parents, they roll their eyes and ask me what I "really" want to be.
I don't know what to do. Sure I've thought about how once A levels are over I can just switch but I'll have nothing. No experience. No contacts. No support. And it's eating me up inside. Any suggestions would be nice.
(Short) No one supports my want to be an actress and so I haven't done anything to prepare to be one. Not sure what to do.
